I'm proud to be representing Btomorrow Ventures and BAT in London on Thursday, 22nd February at Crafty Counsel's High Growth and Venture Capital Day. I will be speaking on a panel alongside some fantastic lawyers in the VC space, Alex Haskell, Legal Director at Salesforce Ventures and Shawn Atkinson, Partner at Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP. 💡 💡 💡 We will explore how and why major companies move into the direction of corporate investments in startups and scaleups and the impact this has across the venture capital market. With the current climate driving financial returns as more of a focus than ever, corporate venture is becoming increasingly important. But what are the advantages? The downsides? Are corporate investors any different to traditional VCs these days? Hear both sides and stories from a market that has been expanding over the last decade. 💡 💡 💡 Our discussion sits alongside a whole range of content planned, exploring real stories of deal terms, funding structures, and down rounds, as well as addressing topics such as brand protection in the high-growth context, broken cap tables, founder stories, and more. The High Growth and VC Day with Crafty Counsel provides a platform for in-house lawyers from Europe’s leading scaleups and their investors to share, collaborate, discuss, and plan for the coming year after a turbulent 2023.
